  • Hello to the Mini Forum

    Just wanted to add a hello to the Mini Forum, although I’ve been at MT for years but most recently due to my change from Audi to Mini landed here 🙂 Since I was a little tired of the Audi Avant after now 7 years, I looked around for a fun car, since my wife driving a Mini One was the car search quickly finished, it should be a JCW.

  • The safest second vehicle for the family

    Due to a tragic traffic accident in the kinship, we want to exchange our 11-year-old polo. I’m primarily concerned with finding a safe car for our offspring (4+2 years). The vehicle should be used as a second vehicle especially for short distance: Here our previous thoughts/improvements compared to the old polo: VW Touran: ABS, ESP, airbags, large knautschzone Roomster: already smaller knautschzone? VW-GOLF: Disadvantage in terms of safety to above? ug with four wheel: Subaru Impreza??

  • Young people for the F1 – what decides?!

    Hi guys! What are the decisive criteria for getting into the F1? Is it primarily about the talent or is it just about the necessary change? And when it comes to the latter, how can you possibly avoid it? I read in a neighbor’s thread, at www.two4f1.com two young tars from the F3 are to be blown by the support of many little patrons/fans to make the jump into the F1. Can this work out for your opinion?

  • Theory onkm Thermostat

    So, I’ve got a theoretical question for everyone! So I suppose having problems with the thermostat is already described below, but now to my theory, if I remember correctly, I can only vent the cooling system with hot engine and large oven circuit, so if the dare is cold, I think only the small one should be open, and thus an airing at the vent screw is not possible, so it shouldn’t flow water. So if the engine is cold, u And I can’t ventilate, the thermostat should be in order. Besides, I have now sealed the cooler with cardboard, and look, he gets his operating temperature, will it test out tonight in the cold and during a longer ride, whether he stays there, then it is the wind that cools down the whole thing, and we all drive in the weather with heating? So I let out the completely, he goes up, I turn it on he goes down. I asked once, so it can be Does anyone know what the second sensor controls at the top of the flange, that is, the one next to the one responsible for the display?? Which sensor is responsible for the overheating indicator?? if you could still answer that to me, I think I would be calm again, because I would then completely exclude the thermostat.

  • Which oil for the V6?

    I know that almost everyone here has their own opinion about oil, but nevertheless I am interested in every contribution from you to my decision: Audi Coupe 2.8 V6 approx.180000 km at the time Castrol 10W-60 The oil was unfortunately a mistake, because shortly after it was in it clacking in cold temperatures the hydros for a few seconds and the oil pressure seems to me also very high. Before was always Shell Helix Ultra 5W 40 (from the predecessor) My selection: 1: Shell Helix 5W-40 2: Castrol GTX7 Dynatec 5W -40 3: Castrol Formula RS 0W-40 Price of oil does not matter, I tend to No. 3 Greetings Pyromane05

  • SL 55 AMG, power loss

    Hello everyone, for two years I have been “stolzer owner” of an SL 55 AMG (model 2003). For some time now the following problem has been resolved: With fast motorway ride about 240 – 250 km/h (vehicle has vmax 300 km/h) with brakes at approx. 200 km/h “misses” at the subsequent acceleration about 1/3 of the power. Even at full speed it takes considerably from 210 km/h to 220 km/h to accelerate. Who drives a SL 55, knows how fast this usually goes. The power is back again. Does anyone have an idea? Is this perhaps an electronic problem? Bernd
